necessary to locate and complete on-demand tutorials for building within

one hour with direction or support from text or other on-demand help

function.

Objectives: Per each tutorial.

Learners: Second Life new learners.

Content: Materials created by E. Adriance, contributing builders, eLumenata SME’s,

builders and programmers per thirteen learning stations / Learning Events described

in this document. Introductory directions and explanations for prerequisite skills are

offered at the beginning of the tutorial entrance.

Media: Second Life and Web Pages at http://priminology.rezzible.com

Learning Environment: Learning will take place primarily in self-guided Second Life

on tutorials in an immersive 3D environment. Modular training include as many

tutorials a learners can complete and a recommended path to the three primary

tutorials are recommended. Supplementary static Web Pages are recommend for

supplementary, and in some cases, primary learning. Entry level skills required to

Theme: The Hanging Gardens of Babylon

http://joseph_berrigan.tripod.com/id14.html

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, which Nebuchadnezzar II built for his Median wife. Nearby was located the Ishtar Gate, with its lions and dragons in brightly colored glazed brick. Through it passed the main Processional Way, the route followed by cultic and political leaders for the New Year's festival ceremonies. Through nine major gates of the massive inner fortification walls passed roads to the principal settlements of Babylonia.
